Changing Font in Adobe reader?

I was doing some pages, in which I can enter the information. The problem when I got to some of the places, is the font was to large in adobe reader? I looked at preferences and could not find any area to change the size of font, so it would fit properly?
Appreciate any help. This is adobe reader 8.1.2
thanks Bruce

Adobe Reader is used for displaying PDF files. PDF files are intended to be an accurate representation of the original document so changing font size isn't normally a feature of PDF readers.
You're probably thinking of EPUB or Kindle files. EPUB readers and Kindles let you change font size.
In a PDF, you need to zoom in on the text to view it larger. Use the normal way of doing it on an iPad: Spreading your fingers on the screen increases your zoom magnification. Closing your fingers on the screen decreases your magnification.

  • Re: Downloading fonts for Adobe Reader XI

    I was attempting to open a document that I downloaded last night, and it said that I had to download upgraded fonts for Adobe Reader XI, and when I tried to it didn't work.

    What is the exact message you are getting?  "upgraded fonts" does not mean anything to me.

  • Change font in Adobe Acrobat Extended Pro

    I was wondering how I am able to change the font in Adobe Acrobat.  I know we can use the type writer, but how can I make it my own font, color and size? Please help! =)

    You cannot create fonts with Acrobat.
    Doing so requires a dedicated font creation application.
    Or purchas of Fonts to augment what the OS and applications install.
    To change fonts in a PDF to something else that is on the local machine and available to Acrobat you could try this:
    Select characters with the TouchUp Text too.
    Right click for the context menu.
    Select Properties.
    Select the Text tab.
    Look over the configuration options to see if they meet your needs.

  • Change font in Adobe Form in the interface

    Hi all,
    I have one issue changing the font in adobe forms.
    In the interface I have as import one string. With this string I have to generate the PDF and I need to change the font.
    Here is an example:
    Import string: "this is an [[FONT=CURIEL]]example of [[N]] adobe [[SIZE=15]] forms"
    the characters [[ ]] indicate an scape sequence.
    [[FONT=CURIEL]] means that all the following text should be in curiel font.
    [[N]] means new line
    [[SIZE=15]] menas that all the following text should be in size 15.
    All this text I has to be added to a string variable and paste in the PDF.
    I know that I can add a new line with "cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline"
    I know that with Javascrit I can change the font and the size, but for that I have to change all the text.
    Is there any way to change some text inside the variable and not all of it?
    Thanks!
    Regards,
    Andres

    Hi UmaS,
    Thanks for your answer.
    I can't use floating text because I don't know how many different fonts I will have and I can't create floating text dynamically.
    Any other idea?
    Thanks,

  • Strange FONT in Adobe Reader 9 with Windows 7

    If a pdf was made from a word document or anything other than a scan the font is very strange, not default arial (see attached picture).  I had this problem in reader X adn downgraded adn still have the problem.  WHen this document is opened in gogle docs or on another computer the font is arial.  Thanks for your help.

    I have the same issue in multiple documents on Windows 7 with Adobe Reader X 10.1.0.  Multiple others on my team can open the same files and do not have the issue.  I have done a terse check and we have similar installed programs, etc.
    Since I am not creating the documents, I have no control over how they are created.  Also, I seem to have the issue on my computer and others do not.
    Is there any way to troubleshoot font substitutions?  Is there any way to verify fonts?  Certainly I can see some fonts are not embedded in a sample I have, but I cannot see any way to know what font was specified and which was picked.  If I could find out that, I may delete the strangely spaced one so a better choice is picked.  It picks this odd font for what should be Arial...I think...but I am not sure. On this one sample doc I was able to get the creator to embed all fonts and it looks correct on my machine.  However the previous version without embedded fonts shows like this:
    Here is what it should look like:
    Both version look fine on other machines.
    Properties on bad font substitution version (I expect the circled are the issue):
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Unable to change preferences for Adobe Reader 9.4.2 on Ubuntu 11.04

    I installed Adobe Reader 9 via the Ubuntu Software Center.  The installed files are located at /opt/Adobe/Reader9/
    The reader runs ok except when I want to change some preferences, I've found that I can only view Preferences, but I cannot change it.  All options are protected including the Cancel and OK buttons.  I can only close the Preferences window.
    Is it just a simple permission (chmod on some files) issue?
    Many thanks.

    If you have the latest updates, then Acrobat Reader 9.4.2 does (at least) partially work in Ubuntu 11.10 + Unity.
    There are a number of minor glitches - due to changes in Ubuntu's undelying GUI, kernal, etc. in the upgrde to Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric).
    -  floating scroll bars (only appearing when you hover mouse-cursor)
    DOES NOT WORK: Does not scroll page .. 
    You may need to disable this feature.  (in CCSM)
    -  Edit >> Preferences
    This tries to work, but loses focus.  I can see the Cancel and Ok buttons, but they don't do anyhting.
    This is a GTK+ library issue, and an update to 9.4.2+ is needed.
    Summary: There are a number of minor GUI issues that haev existed in 9.4.x for Linux.  The update to Gnome 3 and Unity (for Ubuntu 11.10) has definitely made this much worse.

  • Change navigation bar Adobe Reader plugin on Mavericks 10.9.5

    I have installed the latest version of Acrobat Reader on my Mavericks 10.9.5.
    I'm using safari browser with adobe reader plug in to read PDF document in web viewer.
    A few months ago I have noticed that the navigation bar / toolbar is different from what is used to be on Adobe Reader in safari.
    In the original navigation bar there was more options.
    How can I change it back to the default navigation bar to look like this?

    You need to go into the Safari>Preferences>Security>Manage Web Site settings,
    Select Adobe Reader
    Set Allow  Always for all web sites.

  • Missing fonts in Adobe Reader for Pocket PC

    Hi, I recently installed the Adobe Reader 2.0 on my pocket PC and found that on my documents where bullet points are used it starts to complaint that it misses the font WingDings. I have installed the WinDings font in the Windows\Font directory, but it was not the solution for the problem
    Any suggestions as to how this can be resolved?
    It seems just a silly small issue, but I'm worlking on site with customers using my PocketPC for documentation and I just get driven nuts as I have to close every time the pop-up box alerting me that the font is missing!!
    Any help is appriciated.

    >>> Our techs have been using the HTC Blueangel (Same as the I-Mate pictured on your site), and although the image rendered by Adobe Reader was quite sharp, the size of the screen meant you were continually zooming in and out of pages to find the appropriate parts. So weve chosen the HTC X7500 as a replacement because of its 5 screen (amongst other reasons). <<
    Ho Kay... have looked at the file and, based on the general layout (drawings with part# references) don't think you can get there from here.
    Back to the basic goal, a couple of thoughts based on the assumption that your company is generating these pdf's and needs pda access to them.
    Perhaps the part# references can be hyperlinked so the tech could tap the part# on the image and go to a table entry with all of the info on that specific part.
    In that case, html would be a better format for navigation since, afaik, there does not seem to be a <back> button in reader.

  • Changing language in Adobe reader

    Dear sir/Madam.
    The only free version of Adobe reader I could find came to me in Polish language. I can not get an english or Spanish version. I have 2 questions :
    1) How/ where can I get a free version of Adobe reader, acceptable by Google Chrome ?
    2) How  (what are the steps ?) can I change the language of my installed Adobe reader from Polish to english.
    Thanks for your time.

    As a first consideration, please note that the PDF files provided with Microsoft Training materials are language-agnostic from the point of view of the Adobe Reader, that is, they don't influence at all the language in which the reader displays its interface.
    So your problem must be related to the Reader itself, and not the training materials. I mention this because you posted your question in the Microsoft Training and Certification forum (and not in an Adobe support forum), so I have to infer that your problem
    is related to the PDFs in training materials.
    That said, I have installed plenty of times the Adobe Acrobat Reader from the Adobe download page (http://get.adobe.com/reader/), both in Spanish and in English versions of Windows, and it was always downloaded
    in the language that matched the Windows configuration. But anyway, if it doesn't match automatically, there is a link in the download page labelled "Do you have a different language or operating
    system?". If you click there, it will let you change the language for the Reader that will be downloaded. To change the language of your installed reader, uninstall it and then download and install the correct version.

  • Strange Font issue - Adobe reader

    Hi All,
    First off - Thank you for your help.
    I have a strange issue with Adobe Reader where the font is not correctly displayed correctly as compared to the original document. Document diplays in a strange font as per attachment.
    I have removed and re-installed Adobe reader. Updated Reader to a newer version. Installed Adobe pro (licenced) and as a last resort - removed and updated local display drivers.
    Issue remains as per attached image.
    Is this due to embedded fonts? How do i fix this?  Re-imaging the machine is no go at this point.
    Please help!
    Thank You,
    L+G_Guy

    Look at file > document properties > fonts and see if any are listed without the word "embedded" or "embedded subset" against them.
    If a font isn't embedded and isn't available on your system, Adobe Reader will try and substitute another one - but it often looks strange. Aside from that without seeing the actual file we can't help, and of course Adobe Reader can't fix missing fonts; you have to either recreate the original PDF, or install the fonts on your computer.

  • I received a pdf attachment and it prints as garbage fonts from adobe reader. It is ok when I use Apple's preview though. I need a fix.

    HP (my printer) sent me to apple and Apple tried and then sent me to adobe, but adobe doesn't help people unless they pay for it. Can anyone out there figure this out. It's just one pdf doc so far. All the other things I print are fine. example attached. I think.....

    As touching a PDF with Preview can / does do the ugly to PDF get a replacement PDF.
    Keep it away from Preview (always).
    Ensure you've visited the web site of the manufacturer of the printer and downloaded the most recent software/drivers for your OS.
    Have a fully updated Adobe Reader XI installed. Launch it then do "file-open" and open the PDF and go from there.
    Be well...
